Print-To-Video audio beeps

I'm printing a sequence to tape and all is going fine until, at one spot, I hear a few seconds of audio beeps. It's similiar to when audio tracks aren't rendered.
I went back to my sequence, but there's nothing there to be rendered. I play through the sequence and there're no audio beeps.
Any idea why this would occur when I do a print-to-video?
Thanks.

How many audio playback real-time tracks are set in User Preferences, and how many tracks are there at that point in the sequence?
Try adding a couple or four tracks in User Preferecnes and see if that squares it away.

  • Print to video, audio but no video

    Hi,
    I am trying to print a project to video.
    Everything's hooked up, i press record, i record the project's audio, but not the video. Any suggestions?
    Thanks, much appreciated.

    Hey St. Louis,
    I've had this problem many times. Try this course of action.
    Go to View, select "Refresh A/V Devices." Try printing to video again and see if it works. If not, then go to your Audio and Video Settings (Should be under your Final Cut Pro dropdown menu at the top). Once there, go to the A/V Devices tab. Select any of your drop down boxes in this tab (doesn't matter which) and change it to something different, then change it back to your original setting. Try printing to video again.
    I have found that this seems to solve this problem. I've also occasionally run into a problem where I get a window that pops up upon telling the program to print to video that says my selected video and audio options don't match, even though they do. This approach also seems to clear that up.
    Hope this helps.

  • Print to Video - Audio Level

    We just sent a Commercial out to the Cable Company.
    In FCP our timeline/project audio levels were carefully watched so they did not peak at more than -12db.
    When we did a Print to Video so we could Master it to DV Tape for delivery (per their standards), we set the Bars & Tone at :30 seconds & -12db.
    When we re-captured the video to test it out... the Bars & Tone played at -24db and the program played at -12db. Naturally, this concerned us because we were scared that our program's Audio Levels would not be up to par.
    -Normally (in Avid) I would have Bars & Tone on my timeline set to :30secs & -12db... then capture from my timeline with all levels peaking at -12db.
    What should our levels be set at during a Print to Video operation in FCP if our timeline/project is set at -12db?

    I suspect I would not even peak at -3 dBFS. If I am using 24 bit, you have a long way to the noise floor, which means after the fact it is easy to raise the levels if required without adverse consequences.
    If I am in the Analog domain, with a decent mixer with headroom, coming near 0dB I believe is harmless, as 0dB will translate out to -18 ot 20 dBFS ( I am sure this varies from mixer to mixer ) - harmless if your mixer does not clip and has headroom above 0dB. I use a Mackie 1640, which has +18 dB of headroom.

  • Print to video Audio

    When I click print to video it records the video on to my camera but it won't record the audio. How do I make it record the audio?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Camera is a Canon GL2

    What happens when you use Edit to Tape? Does that work? With your camera connected, try using the DV easy setup found in the FCP menu, and give it another go.

  • Printing to Video, Audio but no Video!

    Seems like Im having the exact problem as this guy...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6829306&#6829306
    He said he found a switch that was making his deck monitor black. Did he find that on FCP?
    When I go to print to viewer, there is action to my camera from FCP (everything turns black on the camera)
    Seems like the on computer playback is fine with audio.
    But no Video on the camera viewer.
    When I hit escape it shows one single frame on the camera from the computer playback.
    What do I do? Tried all settings and even some settings that don't even match my AV deck.
    Help!
    thanks!

    k found the problem on my own....
    I was working with 24p material... you need to have a 29p. timeline in order to export...
    had no idea...

  • Urgent!  Print to Video - Audio

    Help. I have a sequence in FCP that says its audio outputs are 1&2. I am printing to tape using my Sony HDR-HC1. I have found out (the hard way) that the sound on the tape is only channel 1. Sony tech help said that using the iLink, whatever the output is from the computer the Sony will record. I am stumped.
    The quicktime version of the file says it's in stereo.
    Is there something I should be doing to ensure that the audio going to the camera is in both channels?

    Pan your only channel (Channel 1?) to center. This will place it on both channels at output.

  • Print to Video  - Audio is missing

    Hi guys,
    I'm attempting to print/Copy to tape a standard mini dv project iv'e completed.
    When checking what i recorded on the the tape through my camera, the audio is missing.
    I have tested a separate project and printed to tape and the audio works fine.
    This tells me something is prob set wrong on the project.
    Any ideas what it could be? Anything i need to check?
    Thanks,
    Maz

    Try trashing your preferences and reopen FCP, and set the "easy setup" to DV...

  • Having trouble with audio edit to tape, print to video ok

    Hi all, please go easy on me, this is my first post.
    I am having difficulty getting audio on to tape via 'edit to tape'.
    The hardware is blackmagic decklink extreme, feeding component video and analoge audio to a UVW-1800P.
    I can do a print to video on a crash record and the audio works that way, but edit to tape does not.
    I have tried both deck link and built in audio in the audio settings and the FCP a/v settings, seperate and ganged output settings, I have set the insert settings to 2 channel Sony, reloaded the decklink drivers.
    The irritating thing is the audio is there whilst cutting, but as soon as I try edit to tape there is complete silence. The important thing is that it worked a few weeks back but does not now, it must be a setting?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    This machine I am working with this week is an Intel MacPro running FCP 5.1.2 and Mac OS 10.4.8
    G5 Dual 2GHz-Blackmagic Decklink Pro, G3 with Sonnet G4 upgrade   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    G5 Dual 2GHz-Blackmagic Decklink Pro, G3 with Sonnet G4 upgrade   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I had this same problem and this resolved it for me:
    -Go to your "Settings" icon and click on the "General" tab.
    -About 2/3 way down the page you will see "Use side switch to:" - make sure "mute" is checked rather than "lock rotation."
    -Then make sure the side switch, located next to the volume toggle switch on the side of your ipad, is moved to the right (no red dot showing).
    My audio worked fine in embedded videos after I did those two things.  Hope it works for you.

  • Weird audio issue when printing to video

    I am attempting to dub a couple of old projects to tape using the Print to Video command (firewire connection to Panasonic DVX-100A MiniDV camera). I have used this method many times in the past with success. However, I have now tried two different projects tonight and had the same strange issue: The project plays back perfectly normally in the timeline, through the computer speakers, but when I Print to Video, there will be one part where a small audio "blip" can be heard. It sounds like either a snippet of tone or the sound of un-rendered audio... except it's all rendered.
    Anybody have any suggestions? It's really weird that it plays back something different in Print to Video than it does in regular playback... Any help is appreciated.

    That did it, thanks! I feel kind of dumb, I've never used that function before. Is that something I should have been doing all along? Anyway, thanks again. It's nice to get a response and have it work on the first try. So refreshing.

  • Loosing audio when printing to video

    I'm working with FCE HD 3.0. I use a Powermac G5-2x1.8. Memory: 3 GB.
    Systemdrive: 150 GB.
    Internal scratchdrive: 280 GB.
    System: Mac OSX 10.3.9. My camera is a Sony HDR-HC3.
    My scratchdisk is filled with 188 GB.
    I edited a 40 min. movie. When I play the timeline everything is fine.
    When I print to tape I lose some parts of teh musictracks (track 5 and 6), Sometimes I even loose little parts of the clipsound (track 1 and 2).
    Befor I print to video I render video and audio, use 'mixdown' and refresh videodevice.
    How to get a good result?
    G5-2x1.8   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    If there is a song bought on iTune Music Store, you can't use this track.
    Did you render an audio mixdown before export ?
    Try a test version with just one minute of movie. (set in and out point in timeline and do the print to tape operation).
    Try a print to tape from a cold start mac.
    Drag your playhead around your sequence before printing (it's seem that this process load the cahe memory, at least in my own experience)
    If the problem is still there, you can also do an audio track mix quicktime conversion export (aiff 16 bit) from your sequence, import it into a new sequence, open your previous edited one in editor (option clik), do uncheck audio A1 and A2 target, and drag the video content on V1 in the new sequence. Drag your exported audio on A1 A2.
    Do a check for the synch of your movie.
    Do not forget to do an audio mixdown before print to tape.
    Does your hard drive is fragmented or full at more than 80% level?

  • Audio is Muted after Cancelling Print to Video

    I was in the process of Printing to Video, and then cancelled it. After doing so, now when I check my project on the timeline, there is no audio. I checked to see if the mute button was checked and it wasn't.
    Any help on restoring audio would be appreciated.

    Change the View>Video>Firewire to Real Time or Canvas playback.
    Or close FCE remove the camera and re-open FCE.

  • Print to Video - No Video, but Have Audio

    I have a Sony DSR-45A Deck and having issues.
    I'm able to log and capture fine and able to print to video. However, when I go to print to video, it starts recording and I get the audio, but no video signal. I don't even have signal when I turn the external video on.
    I used it earlier this week and was working fine. It has happened before and I've just restarted and it was fine. Any ideas? The video I printed to Video this week doesn't work, so know it isn't a frame rate issues.
    Thanks for any help or suggestions. I've been reading all morning and can't find any one with this problem.
    Kris

    If you're getting audio but no video, make sure the deck is set to accept the proper video format (DV-CAM?) in.
    Also, you may have to reset things by shutting everything down, plugging your firewire cable in first, then turning on the deck, and then starting up the mac and launching fcp.

  • No audio when I print to video

    Video is fine, in AV settings I have Firewire audio selected. Audio sounds fine from timeline but when I print to video i get nothing not even a tone with bars at beginning of print down. I've tried different cameras so I'm thinking it is a setting in FCP that I don't have right... Any suggestions? could something like this be the cable I'm using or a weird Firewire problem like not enough power because too many devices are plugged in? I know that the "official" word is (with puffed out chest) Firewire can handle up to blah blah blah devices, But my experience with Firewire is that it is finicky. So, just wondering if it could be something like that. Off to do some experimenting...
    Ive tried unplugging all other firewire devices and works fine on my powerbook with what seems to be the same settings...?

    Hi,
    It appears from what I found online that there are some A/V settings you should check before exporting your video.

    I tried your suggestion, and it didn't work. I'm pretty much lost, and Apple is no help.

  • Audio issues -- Print to Video

    Audio is good as print to video starts, but either drops out all together, or goes out of sync after 30 minutes or so.
    Thanks for your time in advance.

    Have you tried goat sacrifice?
    The results for you may vary - but not for the goat.
    If that does not help, we can progress to the Graduate solution. As Dustin Hoffman learns as the Graduate, " one word for you - audio mixdown".
    Ok, so its two words and that isn't what they said anyway ... still, try to compress down the number of audio tracks (audio mixdown) to ease the computing demands on output. Also, make sure all areas where there is audio are covered by video - for example - put a black slug in the video track if you fade to black in an area where there is still audio running under.
    If these don't work for you, it would help us enormously if you gave some basic info about your project. FCP version? Media type? VTR? compexity of edits? you know the stuff...
    cheers
